Some of Paul Smith's jackets have been rancid.

Also big Pricey's suit, the one where his head looked like a pin

How can you not like the sheriff badge look ?

I really don't know what planet he lives on sometime .

Makes me chuckle tho , so long may it continue .

Lloyd Honeyghan is proper pimped out there

Scary thing is I remember watching that interview. Nearly 13 years ago

Michael Spinks' apparel at that high profile weigh in (Wilder/Fury I?) with lots of heavyweight greats made me wonder about his marbles. He was dressed like Super Pimp.

Remember some of the suits Groves used to wear

Always remember Bruno ringside in some horrendous coloured suits back in the day

Had an electric blue one for Benn McClellan .

Whatever Frank wants to wear is cool in my eyes , don't think many would pull that look off .

If you mean ex boxers I'd probably say me going to the post office this afternoon.

Thought I looked alright but when saw myself in the reflection screen I might as well Ave gone in me daughters pajamas.

I've got too comfortable with this self isolation

I remember at one stage probably 2009 era when they all were wearing Snap Backs ,
Remember Bellew wearing one when he was interviewed at a Stevie Bell fight. Then some of them started to wear them peaky blinder hats after that.
Never keen on either .

What’s a snap back mate?

Flat brimmed baseball cap. Usually with the sticker still on.

Remember that promoter years ago who wore a tux without a shirt.

Eubank was/is an oddball. That said, he always looked immaculate, even if he did look a tit. I remember him flying his barber in for a haircut before a fight. I mean, I doubt anyone noticed the difference but it made one to him. Ironically enough some of his country squire stuff looks smart now. Jodhpurs and monocle, not so much.

Benn had a hideous dress sense but nobody's going to point it out to him. He had a touch of the Barry Venison about him. He also had some really bad haircuts. One of them in particular, razored up the sides. I think he made the front of KO magazine in that, teamed with some cycling shorts. Only Benn could get away with that, or Tyson.

Tyson had a phase of wearing Bill Cosby jumpers. I mean, they were probably Coogi but still...

someone posted a pic of the '76 Olympic squad in flared safari suits. Terrible. Even Lee Majors couldn't make safari suits look "cool".

I've an old press photo of Charlie Magri and Conteh. Terrible outfits.

There's a pic of Cooper and Bugner where Cooper is visiting him in training in '73. He's wearing some horrific checked trousers and jacket and some sort of polo shirt and cardigan combo. He looks like he's just come off the back 9, which he probably had.

I've dozens of those boxing yearbooks, some of the haircuts in there...pure lolz.

George Groves was hideous.

He’s but these nice suits and then ruin it by wearing some daft looking hip hop peaked cap.

I think he went on ringside once looking like a complete helmet.

Yes, that’s the one. I think he was with Spinks.

There’s way too much wearing hats indoors in general in boxing. I think it looks daft.
